LIEBHERR R924C CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

Technical Description

The Liebherr R924C is a heavy-duty crawler excavator designed for versatile earthmoving, material handling, and construction applications. It is powered by a turbocharged and after-cooled Liebherr D 934 S engine delivering 177 hp (132 kW) at 1800 rpm, optimized for reduced emissions. The machine features an operating weight of approximately 57,700 lbs and a fuel capacity of 100.4 gallons, supporting sustained heavy load operations. The hydraulic system includes a pump flow capacity of 56.6 gpm with a fluid capacity of 132.1 gallons, controlled via a 24-volt operating system for efficient power distribution. The R924C offers six boom/stick configurations to suit various operational needs. These configurations provide a range of maximum cutting heights from 31.2 ft to 36 ft and maximum digging depths from 18.6 ft up to 25.3 ft, with corresponding max loading heights and reach along ground varying from 21.2 ft to 25.6 ft and 31.5 ft to 35.6 ft respectively. The unit maintains a consistent shipping height of 10.1 ft and lengths between 32.4 ft and 33 ft depending on the boom/stick option. Bucket capacities vary from a minimum of 0.4 cubic yards to a maximum of 2.4 cubic yards, with a typical reference bucket capacity rated at 1.4 cubic yards, allowing adaptation to different material densities and tasks. The undercarriage measures 12.6 ft in track length on ground, with a drawbar pull of 59,350 lbs and a maximum travel speed of 3.3 mph. Dimensions include an 8.5 ft width outside the tracks and a tail swing radius of 9.7 ft, promoting maneuverability in confined spaces. The machine includes 2 carrier rollers and 8 track rollers per side with shoe size of 19.7 inches, supporting stability and durability during heavy operations. The excavator’s swing mechanism achieves a rotational speed of 8 rpm, facilitating precise movements. Overall, the Liebherr R924C is engineered for robust performance, precision control, and adaptability across a wide range of excavation and material handling tasks.
